Gotta guess minor league muscle. It's a 2way so they won't have to pay him NHL money in the AHL. Of course, this years was 2 way also but I think injuries played a part to why he stayed with the big team all year.

Strickland must form really good relationships with the St Louis players, it seems he gets scoops on them even after they leave town.

Your unconditional rejection of violence makes you smugly think of yourselves as noble, as enlightened, but in reality it is nothing less than abject moral capitulation to evil. Unconditional rejection of self-defense, because you think its a supposed surrender to violence, leaves you no resort but begging for mercy or offering appeasement.

The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The second best time is now.

On a related note TG talked to Berniers agent and he said "they are very close to resigning" or something of that nature. Also they have talking to Gionta. Don't know about Carter.

Carter said his agent, Neil Sheehy, also has been talking with the Devils.

“It hasn’t been negotiating back and forth, but there is mutual interest and I think an interest to get something done, hopefully, before the first,” Carter said. “I like Jersey. I want to play for Jersey. I’ve had a good time there, good coaching staff, good management, and, obviously, winning helps. Making it to the Finals is important.”

Maybe Lou had a deal with Cam that if he didnt do anything really stupid he'd get another year. Only thing I can think of unless its just injury insurance for one of the 4th line guys. Oh well, hopefully him and Boulton are done here next year.

It's a league minimum 2 way contract for a guy that will most likely be in the minors barring injury. I'm not sure what people are getting upset about.

LOVE Carter, good hard working player, will play in any situation, says the right things, and a great teammate.

Because Janssen is a horrible NHL hockey player. He will not be in the minors - he wasn't last year, even when NJ was basically playing 7 forwards in 3rd periods. Vladimir Zharkov should go to Russia and the Devils deserve it - they deserve to lose a player who would help out. Because they insist on putting goon sized roadblocks in his way.

My favorite about TG's post is all the other UFAs saying that Lou's gt his attention elsewhere at the moment,

With Janssen, I imagine some intern printed out a form, was told the numbers to fill in, and sent by email saying take it or leave it.

I collect spores, molds and fungus.Hello fellow American. This you should vote me. I leave power. Good. Thank you, thank you. If you vote me, I'm hot. What? Taxes, they'll be lower... son. The Democratic vote is the right thing to do Philadelphia, so do.How do you spot risk? How do you avoid risk? And what makes it so risky?

Except no one did anything of the sort. Everyone just knows Janssen is just a sh!tty hockey player who can't fight either.

While very funny, could you imagine Lou ever allowing anyone else to do anything of the sort? Do the Devils even have anyone in management titled as assistant general manager? Lou probably doesn't let anyone talk to free agents or GMs, etc.
